The real smoking gun for Google is that they forbid phone makers from releasing *any* android phone that is not on their Google Play platform. If a company wanted any Google Play supported phone, they *all* had to be Google Play phones.
who, except for some/. folks, would have bought an android phone without the google stuff on it? what other store would come with the phone instead? people want android phones because of the google stuff that is included on it.
what you have now is the ultimate insult to their customers. the keyboard has been improved, but are still not safe from dust. however, it will take longer before the dust impacts the keyboard functions. i'm guessing it will take just about long enough to fall outside the warranty.
A faaar better use would be to make healthy foods slightly more palatable without sacrificing it's high nutritional value. Sadly, I foresee this being used to make fruits far sweeter which would make them very unhealthy.
they are already adjusting the taste of sprouts for example, to make them more 'likable'. that is just plain stupid. in the end we will end up with everything tasting the same, taking to joy out of eating. and why is this even a problem? if you don't like sprouts, don't eat them, it's not as if somebody forcing you (if yes, are you less then 6 years old?).
why would you use AI with a 80% success rate for this? isn't chemistry all maths? can't you just calculate the same reactions and have a 100% success rate?
shares dropped by 14%, fourteen! and for what, actually turning up decent growth numbers. i don't see Apple's stock falling because their screw ups in India.
Wind power (and water) is the most clean form of power there has been since the start of humanity. Why would you want to tear down those wind turbines? They are simple machines, which require some maintenance, but can basically keep running for eternity. I mean, there are still functional windmills from centuries ago, working fine.
This. Google step is to prevent incompetently written apps to make their servers crawl.
This is bad news for the open/free alternatives, as those app devs will surely migrate to those. If it is already hard and difficult for Google to scale up their servers to keep up demand for requests from badly written apps, how will OSM ever survive?
some things you keep secret, others you make public. this isn't a weapon as such, but rather a defense system, that could be one reason to make it public. just look at the cold war, where US and USSR were keeping as many things secret from eachother as they revealed.
i didn't know CA was run by such crooks, but that might explain their horrible, bug ridden, unusable, 'enterprise' software and the price they dare ask for it.
if they didn't do all these things to earn our mistrust, then we would still trust them. but no, instead they all seem to make the same mistakes and do the same horrible things.
the people who actually care are a minority, most people will just install whatever. it's like that on windows (people just download and install anything they find on whatever shady site) or smartphones (most android problems result from installing apk's downloaded from... shady sites). things like AUR, PPA's, containers (docker, snap,...) etc bring this problem to linux. it's a security disaster waiting to happen.
the thrill of watching a stunt is knowing that a human is doing it, who cares about a stunting robot? and for hollywood mvie stunt doubles, isn't it cheaper these days to just do cgi?
In case you were thinking the big hollywood studios are behind this, they are not. These two companies are part of the adult industry, never would have thought that they would have been the biggest driving force behind copyright cases.
what i really find worrying is that doctors were only able to detect 66% of tumors, so a lot of people get false diagnostics for something very deadly.
Windows used to be great when it had actual versions and you could install it and forget it for years.
eh? install windows and forget about it for years? how? when you put the pc back in the box and store it on the attic? when the pc is disconnected from any network (would not even qualify in this case)? if there ever was an OS that required constant hand holding it would be windows, my god. if you use windows, it requires attention.
we might still have an old home computer hidden somewhere that we still use for fun every now and then, but young people? not so very much. you only need to look at some youtube video's of kids being introduced and trying out a C64, most of them think it is horrible.
it's an indicator to tell you how much your personal information is worth to a company, if you can easily disable these features with one click then it's probably not all that important to them and they probably don't use it for much. if it takes 13 clicks to disable, you can be sure that is really, really important for them to have your personal (private) information. all the more reason to persist and turn it off.
obviously, rockstar is the only programming lanuage that has a future.

fyi, debian has a reproducible builds project as well

the answer is, as always... it depends.

This should come as no surprise; we can assume that every internet connected device spies on you.
In case you were thinking the big hollywood studios are behind this, they are not.

great ideas, but they won't ever be implemented.
why? because they are long term plans and no politician is interested in long term.
what i really find worrying is that doctors were only able to detect 66% of tumors, so a lot of people get false diagnostics for something very deadly.
now they invest in firefoxOS? they should have done that years ago.

with your reasoning, the difference being the OSS license used, so we have to thank RMS for creating GPL!
I bet you they will never find out!
It's payday for somebody, i wonder how much they bet for.
